Another day
Another strays
Towards the sun
Pushing away
They climb the stairs
White and fair
Go up in life
The steps are shared
The ones who fall
Their faces glum
Either ignored
Or trying to run
Some are carried towards the sky
Some are dragged to their demise
The happy are going up
The upset step down
It’s all very simple
In this part of town
I like to sit
Rest on one step
I watch ...
Each strand was carefully massaged,
Follicles exfoliated and sun glare camouflaged.
Barely three weeks old; his hair nourished each night.
Comfy dreams in soft slumber, with tales of dragons, quests and an extraordinary knight.
Sleep cherub faced boy.
Sleep in contented joy.
Days pass to years as his lunch box was packed full.
Nutritional lunch: fruit, egg salad sandwich and a raisin box; soon he...
Death is the inevitable truth of human existence. The one thing that no one, not even the most powerful can escape.
Or so they say.
It's not quite that simple anymore. Not after tonight. Tonight, there is work, the blasphemy of science itself, to behold. Tonight, a man's life will come to its long-awaited end. Tonight, a man closes his eyes, his breath slowing, his heart beating to a stop within...
Birth.Being born.Starting maybe it’s starting over from your old life the one you don’t remember.
Life.Living going through pain,rejection enjoying the happiest that slips away just a little bit to quick.
And Death.No more pain, only you.In a box while everyone living stares at you crying while you smile.

Quick inhale
Followed by sounds of alarm
Eyes catch their first glimpse of light
Soon after, embrace
Of warmth and love
Unknown but familiar
Baited breath
Curious as to what adventures await
Each day a new story
Are lives written as fate
Or just answers from the roll of a Die
Slow, unsteady breathing
Many years have passed
The story almost over
The inevitable end
Breath in
Breath out

Everything on this planet has a beginning, middle, and end. There’s no code to change that. With no choice, we are born, resulting from the actions of two individuals. These two individuals may or may not raise you. Whoever does, may or may not want to, or necessary be able to. This decides a humans entire “middle” life. The environment one is raised in forms a human into a person. An individual. ...
Life was a lot easier when I was smaller. You know, back when I was nothing more than a cluster of cells with a heart beat. I don’t remember much about those days but I always felt protected. There was more room in the beginning. I could swim around, doing flips as I went. As I grew my space lessened. Then one day I flipped upside down. I could feel the walls caving in on me, there was so much pr...
Hospitals have always fucked me up. To begin my life, I was born in one. My grandma would always tell me this story, I don’t know what her reasoning behind it was, but quite frequently she’d sit me down on her lap, or when I got too big I’d just sit down beside her. We’d sit in the living, she’d hold an old picture frame. She would cry for a few minutes before moving on to the start of the story.

Eyes close as she holds him gently,
She makes sure to remain tranquil
For her entire world is in her arms.
The Life she created as fragile as the porcelain on the shelf nearby.
Missing the glisten his eyes bring with every moment he rests.
Years pass, his delicacy grows thin as does his mothers figure.
Aging quickly as he begins to search for meaning within.
Building a legacy in his mother...
